The Abbeyille Mediuns, of last week,
has this to say about one of Anderson's
young ladies': "Miss Nettie Miller, after
pleasant two weeks stay with her cousin,
Miss Corrie McClung, returned last
Thursday to her home in Anderson. This
is Miss Nettie's second visit to Abbeville,
but We hope will not be her last, as every
body is charmed with her. One of our
young men was so disappointed at not
getting to tell her goodbye, that he has
chawed all of his moustache out since
them"

No evidence of gambling was found. :.

house, Bob Jackson, one of the negroes,
attempted to draw gun on them, but
Policeman FAINT pulled his pistol and
jackson dropped the gun at once. He was
arrested and locked up. =.

President Cleveland has issued the an
nual proclamation appointing Thursday,
November oath, Thanksgiving Day. Let
us all observe it in good and true spirit,
for our country has much to be thankful
for. We hope our business men gene
rally will suspend business for that day,
and at the same time We would suggest
that the pastors of the city churches have
8 conference and arrange for union SER
vice, to be held in one of our churches,
where all of our people may go and de-
vote an hour in thanksgiving and prayer
to the Giver of all good.
The following recipe for keeping lamp
chimneys from cracking is taken from the
Diamond, a Leipsic journal devoted to the
glass interests: Place your chimneys,
tumblers or vessels which you desire to
keep from cracking, in pot filled with
cold water and little cooking salt, allow
the mixture to boil well over fire, and
then cool slowly. Glass treated in this
way is said not to crack, even if exposed
to very sudden changes of temperature.
Chimneys are said to become very dura-
BILE by this process, which may also be ex-
tended to crockery, stoneware, porcelain,
etc. The process is simply one Of anneal-
ing, and The slower the process, especial
ly the cooling portion of it, the more eff
fective will be the work.
